She later stayed home to take care of her family. Erma served on the Rock Falls Cemetery board for many years.

Erma enjoyed her time with family and friends whether it was just to visit, play 500, Rummikub or play Bingo. She became a creature of habit with her weekly Lawrence Welk show on Sunday or her annual trip to Gays Mills for apples in the fall.

Mrs. Eygabroad was preceded in death by her parents, husband, Wayne; grandson, Nick Becker; son in law, Noel Becker; brother, Norman Johnson; two brothers in law, Eugene Woiwood and Jerry Campion.
